Victor Metal Pedal Sustainably Sourced FSC Wood Snap Mouse Trap - 20 Wooden Traps - M156-20 - Snap Traps for Mice - Reusable or Disposable Mouse Trap

I've used various mousetraps over many years, and these old-school traps have consistently been the most effective and least expensive. Some might be slightly easier to use, but if you bait and set this trap properly, it catches the most mice. Load peanut butter (or any nut butter) on and inside the metal bait holder and they do the job and do it well. Hard to beat at about a buck a trap.

I was using the older style Victor traps, without the yellow trigger, and would constantly find the peanut butter was licked clean and the trap unsprung. These are a huge improvement over the old traps. I have been using these about a month and have not found a single trap licked clean of the bait without killing the mouse. The plastic trigger is far more sensitive and doesn't let the mouse near the peanut butter with out doing it's job. They are very effective and a bargain for the 12 pack.

I'm back to buy my second box, These simple mouse traps work perfectly every time! All you have to do is bait it right and place it where mice travel. Last year I had some grain stored in my garage, and did not realize it was drawing mice until my garage was overrun. I have used other traps in the past, but my husband always used this kind, and he always caught any mice that showed up. in our house, so I bought this box of 20 traps because I do not reuse them, just toss them in the garbage with the mouse still in the trap. I just kept trapping them until they were all gone. But this winter, though I have not had mice in my house in years, I saw one run between the wall and my fridge. I still had 4 traps left from last year so I started setting traps down in that small space between my fridge and the wall. There is one mistake that some people make, and then complain that the traps don't work. That is to use only peanut butter as bait, or too small a piece of cheese. Peanut butter is too soft, so if a mouse is careful he can lick it off without setting the trap off. My husband always used a good chunk of cheese that took up the whole metal tongue except where the latch goes, and he pressed the cheese hard onto the tongue, so it was not easy for the mouse to get it off the tongue. This year I did not have solid cheese, so I used grated cheese, squished it together tightly using a small dab of peanut butter to bond the cheese shreds together, then pressed it onto the tongue and mounded it up as much as would go on the tongue without interfering with the latch. The only time it failed to catch a mouse, is when I put a little too much peanut butter, and the mouse was able to steal it without setting off the trap. I re-set the same trap and it caught a mouse, so I know the trap was not faulty, just my bait. Between last year and this winter, I have used 18 traps and caught a mouse with every one. But I probably have more, so i am back to order more traps. Let me just conclude here, that there is no need to buy more expensive traps These may be a little more sensitive to set (I couldn't remember how, so I looked it up on you tube), but if you bait them right, and place them well, there could not be a more effective trap. The bait is most important, but if you use an adequate amount of firm cheese, press it onto the tongue well, then add a touch of peanut butter on the cheese, then set the trap, when these traps stop catching mice, its because your mice are all gone, or you need to find another place to set the traps.

This Victor M150 wooden mouse trap is effective and does what it’s designed to do. The metal pedal is sensitive and triggers quickly, and the solid wood base feels durable and well constructed. As shown in the photo, it successfully caught the mouse when placed along the wall where mice typically run. It’s easy to set, requires no poison or chemicals, and works well for indoor home pest control. The only reason for four stars instead of five is that placement and bait choice matter for best results, but overall it’s a dependable, traditional mouse trap that offers good value in a multi-pack.

The Victor Mouse Traps work great to take quickly eliminate my occasional country mouse invasion. They truly are so fast at doing the job and that feels like a blessing to me and them. I always get the 12 pack because if there is 1 mouse there is 12! They are reusable and sometimes I just choose to throw them away when I don't want to handle the situation. They do take some patience to learn how to set them and I use peanut butter as bait in the little cylinder on the trap. Keep your fingers out of the way because the work well! The size works well for your average mouse except for the teeny tiny babies. I've tried other brands of traps and I keep coming back to Victor. They are easy to clean but made of wood so you do your best.

UPDATE I had put out several of these small traps that I talked about in my first review, and when I caught what I thought was "the" mouse, I didn't pick up the other traps figuring that I would get them this weekend. Imagine my surprise when I came home from work and found every single one of them with a dead mouse in them. These are super successful traps. I bought high-tech electric mouse zippers that didn't work. I bought that was poison that didn't work. I bought natural products with mint and cinnamon and clove oil oils that didn't work. Last night I set up a Victor Mouse Trap, the old-fashioned kind of trap, not believing that it would do what all the high-tech and science couldn't do, but I was running out of options. I followed the instructions which were very clear online to not touch the bait with your fingers but to use a Q-tip so that your scent would not be on the food. Per a DIY site, I used a very chunky super sweet peanut butter. At 6pm I placed the trap against the wall where the mouse was likely traveling. At 9am the next morning I found the mouse dead in the trap. Not only was this a really successful product, but if you use the Victor "How To Set Up the Mousetrap" video on their website, set up is a piece of cake. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and clearly, successful. It'll be my go to in the future.

Fab traps,have caught countless mice on them.

Puse 10, de ellas 3 se activaron y las 3 alcanzaron a atrapar un raton. El truco es seguir las instrucciones y dejar el lado de la carnada viendo al muro. Son feas, chicas, dificiles de poner pero la verdad funcionan y creo eso es lo que importa, aupongo por algo se ha usado el mismo diseño por 100 años.

Had one small mouse sneak into my house while they were doing renovations downstairs. I'd see it at night sometimes but couldn't catch it. Tried a cage trap, but it would go in and steal the food and sneak out. Tried one of those plastic snap traps, same effect. Tried a glue trap, it walked right across and left a trail of tiny footprints. Finally got these and set them up last night. Woke up this morning to a dead mouse. Didn't even hear it at night. I'm going to leave a few more around just in case there are more. (Baited the trap with a bit of sliced cheese). Be careful not to snap it on your fingers. The trigger is very sensitive!

These mouse traps donot work at all. The traps don't even go off with even a simple light touch they are useless. I would never recommend anyone to buy these. So disappointing these items

Muy buenas y no escapa el ratón
